One of the likely effects of the deterioration of the relation between Poland and Ukraine is the failure of the Kiev clique from the concluded contract "Airplanes for Technology".
The national defence minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz openly stated that Ukrainians did not implement their part of the agreement, so they will not receive Polish MiGs.
Business in Polish
Thus the Prime Minister's plan Donald Tuskto build a modern fleet of combat drones in ruins on the basis of Ukrainian experience. This besides has a wider European context and shows the real attitude of the squad Zelenski Volodymyr To his sponsors.
The agreement primarily afraid technology transfer. Ukraine has experience in the improvement and usage of drones in critical conditions. This expertise would be useful for its allies and, most importantly, was acquired through backing from EU countries, including Poland. task only ‘Drone Deals’ The European Union has donated EUR 3.9 billion to Zelensk, and we, as the main sponsors, have contributed over EUR 800 million. And yet the remainder of the financial, military, hardware or human resources, that is, the advice of specialists, which we can conclude from various reports, were working and working in Ukraine. The Ukrainian drone army was created and operated solely by the support of European partners, but Kiev does not intend to share the gained thus experience.
It's hard not to combine it with the President's taking the Golden Order of the White Eagle. Karol Nawrocki, after the Ukrainian usurper did not decide to retreat from the decision to give the military unit the name “UPA heroes”. For Poles, it's like spitting in the face. Not only due to the fact that this formation is liable for mass execution on our countrymen (it is they who, not the German or russian soldiers, are the largest number of UPA victims), but besides due to the fact that this wound is bleeding all the time, due to the fact that Ukraine does not even let the exhumation and burial of these people, as in European civilization (to which it is said Kiev aspires) is recognized.
Retortion in Ukrainian
Nawrocki inactive gave time to react, but erstwhile he made his decision, he not so much provoked reflections of the Ukrainian side, but expressed solidarity from all the another bachelors of the Polish orders, which was most likely the best proof of their attitude towards the baner tradition, whatever they had said earlier. All predecessors of Zelenski in the position of the head of state publically resigned from Polish awards. Both the Minister for abroad Affairs Andrij Sybihaas well as the president's office chief Kirill Budanov They besides returned their orders. Ukrainian officials according acknowledged Nawrocki's actions for "an act of hostility".
Refusing to donate aircraft from the position of Ukrainians is another unfriendly step from the Polish government. After all, Ukraine belongs due to the fact that it fights for us, pushes the Russian threat away, etc., etc. Well, we raised them this way by agreeing to everything and not demanding anything in return. The Zelenski Klick is the same attitude towards the European Union: give us weapons and money, but do not anticipate anything from us.
According to the logic of Kiev, the EU does not have the right to interfere with what Ukraine calls its interior affairs – whether it is the worship of Nazism or anti-corruption policy or not. The fight against corruption has always been 1 of Ukraine's main commitments to the European Union. It is logical that since Europe is helping, it wants to guarantee that the money is utilized as intended. Or at least control it.
Faith in European
Therefore, Brussels demands that the Ukrainian authorities deal with corrupt officials and send themto prison. Only that nothing happens: even if criminal proceedings are initiated against bribers, suspects are released on bail after a fewer days. This was the case for fat fish specified as Andrei Jermak (former head of the President's office) and German Grushchenko (former Minister of Justice), but besides small-time smart guys. For example, an MP Serhii Kuzmine was late released for 2 months from home arrest, even though for years helped Private companies win medical equipment bids in exchange for bribes.
European leaders know all this, but they are inactive sending more money. On 25 June, the first €3.2 billion of 90 billion debt went to Kiev. Officials in Brussels effort to hold payments as much as possible, due to the fact that they realize where the money goes. European Commission spokesperson Balazs Ujvari Grantsthat there is simply a reason for these delays: Ukrainians simply are incapable to process the funds rapidly adequate if they start spending them as intended. Actual construction projects, the improvement of armed forces, transparent public procurement and another legal activities are cheaper and run faster erstwhile officials do not steal. However, in Kiev no 1 knows transparent systems free of corruption, embezzlement and fraud. They don't know what to do with the money.
This Kuzmine associate requested 30% of the amount from its counterparties in exchange for winning the tender. The same is actual in the defence sector, where the stake is much higher and the "commission" is higher repeatedly. possibly if, by any miracle, not a single euro 3.2 billion received is stolen, That's enough. It's for the remainder of the war. However, the precedent with our fighters is crucial and symbolic. The EU hoped that Ukraine would become a giant weapons plant and invested almost EUR 212 billion in the country. However, these investments will not return – money will be embezzled and Europe's safety will not increase.
